Experienced or new Wikipedians (We will provide assistance with Wikipedia formatting and syntax.)

Amateur historians or research pros (We will have a selection of University Library resources and a reference desk staffed by librarians to help you with research. We can also pull additional materials from the Collection as needed.)

UNC faculty, staff, and students.

WHAT TO BRING: A laptop. We'll help you access the University's wireless network.

WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU ARRIVE: Volunteers will be there to greet you at the entrance to the Stone Center.

There are ways to participate remotely! We'll be updating the topic list in real time, with editors signing next to articles they're working on, so anyone with a Wikipedia account can log on and do the same. We'll also be available during the event for comments and questions on Twitter @stonecenterlib (using the hashtag #wikiNC), and on our Facebook page. You can direct message us on Twitter or comment on the Facebook event post with reference questions.

We welcome remote participants, and hope these options will allow you to participate!

The following are additional topics that Stone Center Library staff have identified as needing attention, but participants are encouraged to pursue their own interests as well. Hyperlinked sub-topics already have Wikipedia articles, but may need citations or more information. Main headings e.g. 'African Art' have been hyperlinked for reference.

Some of these topics are mentioned briefly in other articles, so if you create a new article, try to search for that topic in Wikipedia so that you can create links back to your work.
